ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods are disclosed herein for retrieving data from memory in a computer system. In one example, a memory controller is coupled to a system bus in a computer system that includes bus masters similarly coupled to the system bus. The memory controller is configured to receive requests to read or write data from memory from bus masters of the computer system. If the memory controller receives an initial request from certain bus masters, the memory controller is further configured to anticipate a future request from certain bus masters and prefetch data on behalf of certain bus masters for rapid delivery following a subsequent request to read data from memory submitted by the certain bus masters.
